I can't remember ever going to buy bread without buying a load of
other items... in fact I can't remember ever considering a special
trip just to buy a loaf of bread. If ever I discovered I ran out of
bread I'd eat something else until I got to a store... I can't
remember ever running out of bread, has to be a half dozen loaves in
the basement freezer now. About the only time I'd make a special trip
to shop is if it's gonna be a holiday weekend, the liquor store will
be closed and I'm low on vodka, but I can't remember that ever
happening either, I buy by the case so my only problem is runing out
of space in the cabinet where I keep booze so I rearrage the cat food.
I've never run out of cat food either. I always have more than a
month's supply of cat food and vodka. Right now I have more than a
two month's suply of each. Next week I'm planning on making a
birdseed run, I'll get a three month supply even though I have at
least a two month supply. Today I had a big burger for dinner,
actually a chopped steak, but I caramelised four onions and have only
one left, so I need to buy more... but I always have lot of dehys,
both plain and toasted. It's rare I run out of something.
